[GIT PULL] workqueue fixes for v4.6-rc7

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

Hello, Linus.

CPU hotplug callbacks can invoke DOWN_FAILED w/o preceding
DOWN_PREPARE which can trigger a WARN_ON() in workqueue.  The bug has
been there for a very long time.  It only triggers if CPU down fails
at a specific point and I don't think it has adverse effects other
than the warning messages.  The fix is very low impact.

Thanks.
